It’s likely that some contractors will offer a sign-off service for a fee, allowing flippers to comply with the letter of the law without significant extra labor costs.

Make sure it's signed prior to you handling the compensation.

@Raghavendra Jakkani first, agree with everyone else about every occcupant 18+ being screened & signing the lease, with one exception - an occupant that is claimed on another occupant's tax return as a dependent.

Offering help isn’t a sign of weakness.

Once you get that, sign it and send it back, then request their financials and documents pertaining to the sale. 

One thing that caught me by surprise was a "Broker Transaction Fee" of $995 in the buyer's agreement I was told to sign.

Unfortunately, to my knowledge, I don't believe there's any documentation that a future landlord might find to tip them off to the poor character of these tenants.Moving forward, I'm less dismissive of warning signs in the tenant screening process.

Plus, the city’s growth in logistics is a good sign for rental demand.Excited to see where your journey takes you!

But the apartment lease the couple signed didn’t include that, and they never noticed.

I immediately signed up for a BP Pro membership, joined a live webinar on how to start in 2024, and absorbed everything I could about real estate.At first, I was exploring the idea of investing in San Diego, where my girlfriend and I were living at the time.
